I know a fight trainer in Coventry England who has a gym there called “ The Red Corner “ and he said his dad told him if you saw the Turpin boys walking towards you you crossed over to the other side of the road. They were hard lads who had a fighting reputation. Even there sister was scary 🥊
"Rich The Fight Historian's" audience is usually a higher caliber than the average Youtube channel community. That being said, please people, don't let the commentary get you worked up. You CANNOT judge the past through the lens of the present. Just see it for what it is and understand, things change. Allowing any time of negative emotional reaction over this is just plain foolish. "Get a life" material.
Ya, inquiring minds would enjoy knowing how someone commits suicide with a bullet to the head and heart??? Must be the same ballistic experts called upon in the JFK assasination and their single bullet theory.
Keep it going Rich. These quick clips from the archives are priceless. We're all with you, as you keep our attention, and I know that you're working on a few in depth special features. Looking forward to seeing what you're putting together. ✝🥊🙏
Negro boy, colored, white boy, ah such colorful language, no hope for blacks in those years. Poor conditions, for blacks., In every way. The good news they are gone, these racist fathers., But left the systemic racism intact.

It's like a jack pot with all the new content. Much respect Rich. You do a great job.
The commentary from the fight is so racially biased. Like just blatant racism. I guess back then they didn't try to hide it

Si este bagallo de Turpin le gano a Robinson, el zurdo Lausse hubiera partido al medio a Sugar Ray.
Well Rich it's about my bed time it has been a great night at the fights you have out done yourself tonight and I have enjoyed myself. Thanks ol buddy

That's very tough matchmaking for a 12 and 0 fighter. Mark was a great fighter himself.
Keep it going Rich. These quick clips from the archives are priceless.

Turpin was such a strong awkward fighter. His fight with Bobo Olson is a great match
I love these short an more frequent videos Rich. All quality and thanks for sharing!

Turpin is only 18 here and already his physique is incredible!
